Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
This 1995 tribute to the late Brazilian bossa nova master draws from the cream of the Verve/Polygram jazz catalogue. Saxophonist Stan Getz, who introduced the sublimely sensual bossa nova to North American audiences in the early 60s, is joined by vocalist João Gilberto on the well-known title track and by guitarist Luiz Bonfa on the exquisite "O Morro Nao Tem Vez". Sarah Vaughan ("Corcovado"), Billy Eckstine ("Felicidade"), Wes Montgomery ("How Insensitive") and Oscar Peterson ("Wave") also turn in classic performances from the 60s. Jobim himself offers guitar and piano accompaniment on several tracks and duets with Brazilian vocalist Elis Regina on "Aguas de Marco". Although subsequent generations of lame lounge singers have robbed bossa nova of its original mystique, in its pure form, this music is unsurpassed in conveying an intimately romantic mood with carefree sophistication. --Rick Mitchell
